@Michel using virtualenv we can create an isolated environment in the system. Just go through - http://docs.python-guide.org/en/latest/dev/virtualenvs/ @Eric I'm using Ubuntu, and I was able to install and use libvirt using sudo apt-get install python-libvirt but its not available in tg2 virtual environment.
Moreover if you try to install in the virtualenv using the sudo apt-get install python-libvirt, it would say the package is been already installed.
apt-get operates with system-level packages, so there's no difference if you run it from virtualenv or not.
I think you have two options:
- Install python-libvirt and create virtualenv with --system-site-packages [1] so it pulls system python-libvirt
- Activate virtualenv and install python-libvirt using pip
